“Fantastically comfortable as home, the owners are sweet as they could be and I didn't want to leave!”

Staying alone, I chose the Shaw House over a hotel/motel for safety and was ever so pleased. While I am a young grandmother myself, I felt as if I was coming home each evening to my grand parents. The Shaws were such a welcome sight every evening and morning. The house was absolutely lovely; the view across the marsh wonderful and I don't know how they managed it, but the deer grazing in the back yard was the sprinkle on the cup cake as my daughter would say! The breakfast prepared each morning was delicious as well. Thankfully, I live in Charleston, and next will have the opportunity to see the Shaws during my visits Georgetown and hopefully stay with them the next time I have overnight business there.

“Cannot recommend - cluttered, run down, and the food was terrible”

We were very disappointed with this bed and breakfast. The house is in much need of updating and at the very least, a good paint job. It was just too cluttered--there was no room to set down any of our personal items--every surface was covered with stuff. The breakfast served in the morning was practically inedible--old fruit, a stale croissant and days old quiche. The hosts were very nice, but the house seems to be getting away from them.

“The Greatest B&B Inn Keepers of all time!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 May 2010

When you pull up to this stately Manor you are immediately WOWED! The Location says it all! 40 mins to Myrtle Beach and about an hour to Charleston. The Huge Front porch sets the tone for what we in the South call RELAXIN'. I must say I was impressed with manor at which every detail is covered. From the his and hers robes hanging in the bathroom to the chocolates on the pillows. To say we where impressed is an understatement. The view from the covered screen deck was breath taking. If you looking for fine traditional southern breakfast cuisine The Shaw House is your place! PS... Don't miss Downtown Georgetown it is a lovely place.

“Gentle southern hospitality”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 May 2010

Mary and Joe have been opening their home to travelers for a long time, and it shows. Their inn is located in a quiet area of Georgetown but is minutes from beaches, restaurants, and historic sites. They have gracious public areas where you can relax. They have a new screened-in porch that is nicely appointed with comfortable furniture and a view of the marshes that is second to none. We stayed for three nights, and the breakfast each morning was excellent and varied. They are generous people with big hearts, and we would stay there again in a heartbeat. We made new friends and couldn't have been happier with our choice of an inn.

“cozy, quiet, and very comfortable”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 March 2010

The Shaw house was a wonderful relaxing getaway. The hosts were very hospitable and helpful to make sure we had everything we needed and were knowledgeable in recommending restaurants, shops etc when we asked. It was clean and well furnished and the breakfast was delicious. The price was very reasonable.
